⚠️ @jpbempel This change is now ready for you to apply for maintainer approval. This can be done directly in each associated issue or by using the /approval command.

[jpbempel]

/approval request retransformation on a record with type annotation on a record component leads to a corrupted state in the JVM memory. Best cases we have an exception, worst cases a JVM crash. It is common to use type annotation like @NotNull on the record components.
